I'm just making a generalization based on experience. I don't care what anyone eats, they can eat Soylent Green if they've sourced it legally.
Just in my experience vegans always have to announce it with trumpets that they are indeed a vegan and make a big deal out of it. If going out with friends, just order whatever meets the diet and be quiet about it. I don't announce if I order a burger with a side of vegetables that I did that because I do in fact eat meat and that I don't eat french fries.
Again, that's based on my experience. Perhaps there's a bunch of quiet vegans that do what I'm suggesting but I suppose they don't draw notice.
The only time I've ever heard anybody talk about how much they like meat is in response to when some vegan dipshit starts running their mouth. And nobody thinks it's a "virtue" to eat meat, it's just an enjoyable thing to do, so calling it "virtue signaling" doesn't even make sense.
The closest you might be able to describe it as "virtue signaling" is to let other people know that you're also annoyed by judgmental assholes bloviating about their virtuous diets.
The whole "soy-" thing is a virtue signal for eating meat.
No, it's a joke against someone virtue signalling eating vegan. It also functions as a multi-layered joke against Leftists for being so predictable. But it doesn't actually virtue signal for anything, which is the crucial component for virtue signalling.
Big difference between dragging something down and laughing at it and propping something else up and displaying yourself.
As a shitpost, sure. But look at this logically. There wouldn't be any joke to make unless there were alot more virtue signalling vegans than virtue signalling meat eaters. It just wouldn't stick.
Vegan is just another virtue signal to me. There's a big difference from being a health nut and being a vegan.

I appreciate that you're making an effort to argue your point in good faith, but
that's not virtue signalling
neither is that
nor that. are you sure you know the meaning of this term?
